Yep, that quote is why I really wanted them to fook off back down to the Championship. Enjoy your trips to the even more half arsed Hull and Barnsley instead.

Could not be happier with the 2 that have gone. Good riddance to both.

I am fucking delighted that Blackpool and Blues fucked it up on the last day.

Well I'm really sorry to see them go, both because they've played some good football and I've got good friends who support them.

Same here.  One of our group companies is just outside Blackpool.  Won't miss Holloway though.

Part of me wanted Blackpool to stay up.  Small club battling against the odds and all that.

But a bigger part of me wanted to see the turnip muncher crestfallen. Think they might struggle next year. They've experienced the rarefied atmosphere of the top flight and some of their players might struggle to get motivated to face the likes of Doncaster, Watford and so on.

The sad thing is that Rent-A-Quote will probably walk out on Blackpool and get another job with some middling PL team before the year is up.  We'll just have to slap them silly when they come to VP.
